Reviews
Praise for "The Goose Girl" and Shannon Hale: " In layer upon layer of detail a beautiful coming-of-age story emerges, a tale about learning to rescue yourself rather than falling accidentally into happily-ever-after. Hale uncovers her theme patiently and without preaching, focusing not on the moral but on the adventures her heroine must face in order to learn the lessons herself." -- "New York Times Book Review""" " Shannon Hale is already, after only a few books, one of our best writers of fantasy. She is also one of those rare storytellers who can bring a jaded old reviewer like me to well-earned tears." -- Orson Scott Card " I was completely beguiled...Hale's writing is beautiful, with a vivid eye for detail." -- Justine Picardie, "Telegraph """, "Funny, moving, and a real surprise." - USA Today "Gloriously satisfying." - Glamour "Adorable! This is the best tribute to obsessed Austen freaks (like me) that I've ever read." - Stephenie Meyer, New York Times bestselling author of the TWILIGHT series "An utterly enjoyable tribute." - Miami Herald "An homage to Austen... Austenland offers hope that after years of fruitless searching for a companion, just when you're ready to give up on love, it will find you on its own." - Houston Chronicle "Allow me to direct you to the best Austen tribute since Karen Joy Fowler's The Jane Austen Book Club : Shannon Hale's clever and imaginative Austenland... Hale's charming first book for adults is chick lit with soul. Though there's a laugh on nearly every page--Hale, like Austen, is adept at subtly skewering the ridiculous--there's also the more serious story of a woman learning the difference between fantasy and reality, and discovering that real life can be better than your dreams. Is there a better message for a summer read?" - Bookpage

Synopsis
For readers of Waiting for Tom Hanks and Well Met , a "gloriously satisfying" ( Glamour ) romantic comedy set at a Jane Austen fantasy resort from New York Times bestselling author Shannon Hale. Now a major motion picture starring Keri Russell and produced by Stephenie Meyer. Jane Hayes is a young New Yorker with a real romantic problem: no man she meets can compare to her one true love-Mr. Darcy from Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice . But when a wealthy relative bequeaths her a trip to an English resort for Austen fanatics, Jane's fantasies of meeting the perfect Regency-era gentleman suddenly become realer than she ever could have imagined. Dressed in empire waist gowns and torn between a sexy gardener and an actor playing the brooding Darcy role, Jane finds herself mastering the rules of etiquette and of the resort's flirtatious games. But when it's time to bid Austenland goodbye, can Jane really leave her fantasies-and the two men who've played into them-behind? In this addictive, charming, and entirely delightful story, Shannon Hale brings out the Jane Austen obsessive in all of us., The beloved novel set at a Jane Austen fantasy camp for women, from New York Times -bestselling author and Newbery Honor winner Shannon Hale., Jane is a young New York woman who can never seem to find the right man-perhaps because of her secret obsession with Mr. Darcy, as played by Colin Firth in the BBC adaptation of Pride and Predjudice . When a wealthy relative bequeaths her a trip to an English resort catering to Austen-obsessed women, however, Jane's fantasies of meeting the perfect Regency-era gentleman suddenly become more real than she ever could have imagined. Is this total immersion in a fake Austenland enough to make Jane kick the Austen obsession for good, or could all her dreams actually culminate in a Mr. Darcy of her own?, For every woman who has read "Pride and Prejudice" and sighed for Mr. Darcy comes a confection of a book from "New York Times"-bestselling author Hale.

- i***r (41)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseI bought a hardcover copy of Smoke Bitten. The listing noted that it could be a library copy, and that it would take 5 business days to come. It came in 3 business days (+wknd was 5 days total) in an envelope, and was a library copy. Bc I knew it was a discard, I was anticipating rough condition, but it was in very good condition, with only one small ding on the front cover. For the price I paid, I am very happy with the book and the service. I would buy from this seller again.
